Why Reuben Hills wins locally
Strong 4.3★ average with solid review depth — customers actively recommend this café. Central position captures pass-by and destination traffic.
Lesson for new entrants: Compete on a tighter daypart (early breakfast or late specialty coffee) rather than matching their full menu breadth.
Rank #3 among cafés within ~800m of Surry Hills centre (Google Places cache, June 2026).
